How do you export Outlook for Mac 2011 Contacts to iCloud?

Since I've recently become an ex-Outlook Exchange user, I'd like to have all my contacts reside in iCloud to support all my iOS devices. I've seen numerous workarounds and patches (e.g. Sperry Software) and all seem awkward and complicated. I have to believe their is a definitive and well thought out solution for this. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Outlook 2011 for Mac is not compatible with iCloud, Microsoft elected to remove the DAV services (present in Outlook 2010 for Windows) from the Mac version, thus leaving them with a Windows version of Outlook that is compatible with iCloud, and a Mac version that is not.

  • Getting Outlook (for Mac 2011) contacts to iPhone 4S with Mountain Lion installed

    I installed Mountain Lion only to find out I can no longer get contacts to my iPhone. ML doesn't support Sync Services so I can't go through Mac's Address Book. I can't get Outlook contacts directly to iCloud. For some reason I can't even do it through iTunes either (with all iCloud disabled). Now I have a phone with NO contacts on it!

    Install the latest Service Pack for Outlook.  Then go into Outlook under Tools and Sync Services and put in a checkmark for Contacts.  This will sync your contacts from Outlook into the Address Book.  Once that happens, iTunes (latest version) can sync that info over to your phone if you pick sync contacts in iTunes.
    This is how I did it.  I can sync everything except Notes this way.  Apple ***** a little bit in this regard.

    Outlook for Mac doesn't support contact (or calendar) syncing with iCloud because Microsoft  chose not to include the CardDAV (and CalDAV) protocals that are required (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  You'll have to use the OS X Address Book (Contacts) app to sync with iCloud.

  • How can i sync mac address book w/ outlook for mac 2011

    Is it possible to have the address book in Outlook for Mac 2011 sync w/ the Mac address book?  I cleaned up my contacts in the Mac address book expecting the changes to show up in my outlook address book.  Made over 200 changes that did not show up on the Outlook address book.  Seems like there should be a way to make this work.  If I add contacts from within Outlook, I'd like them to show up on all my devices.  MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm new to this platform as I was a PC guy for the last 30 years. 

    I've got Outlook up and running just fine.  Still have the problem with getting duplicate emails but I'm waiting on MS to get a fix for that in an update.  Apparently that has been an ongoing issue.  I've been in contact w/ a senior MS Outlook tech on that.  I guess I'll just have to make sure that all contact adds/edits are done in Outlook.  Then I can sync my phone or iPad and get the cloud to update the other Apple devices off that sync.  Either that or figure out how to export from the Mac address book to the Outlook address book once in a while. 

  • How to sync Address Book TO Outlook for Mac 2011

    I am using the native Address Book from Mac OS 10.7.5 and need to keep using it because it syncs with my iPhone. However, I am using Outlook for Mac 2011 and want the contacts to synch from Mac Address Book to Outlook's contact list.
    Synch services have been turned on in Outlook.
    Originally, I was going to switch to Mac Mail but discovered that importing mail from Outlook is a headache (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2664208?start=0&tstart=0). Outlook works well and has for years so rather than going through a bunch of manual drag and dropping of folders to make mbox files, or buying software to do it, I thought getting the contacts to synch would suffice since that's all that's really needed.
    What I discovered is that Outlook will feed new contacts to Mac Address Book when they are generated in Outlook but the Mac Address Book does not feed new contacts to Outlook if they were generated in Address Book. Is this even possible? If so, how?
    Thanks,
    Karen
    I read this previous thread but it talks about contact info going FROM Outlook to Address Book instead of the other way around: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2664208?start=30&tstart=0

  • I need help exporting Apple Mail messages to Outlook for MAC 2011

    Good morning,
    I need help exporting Apple Mail messages to Outlook for MAC 2011. Please....

    It is possible to do this without external tools, but it is a tremendous faff. See
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macoutlook/import-ema il-from-mail-to-outlook-2011/5e858173-e1f4-4adc-99d7-253cc467169d?page=2 for details.
    The easiest way, however, is to use Mail Exporter Pro https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mail-exporter-pro/id675131616?mt=12 which will convert the email for you from one format to the other, and comes with an excellent manual.
    A third possibility is to connect Apple Mail to an email account via IMAP (this doesn’t have to be your usual account, you can just create a Gmail account for the purpose) . Copy all the messages into it and they will be uploaded. Then connect Outlook 2011 to the same account, via IMAP again, and let the messages download, then copy them to wherever you want to keep them and disconnect from that account. This is slow but preserves the attributes of your email (e.g. read/unead) better than any other method.

  • HT4489 I'm unable to open vCard exported from MS Outlook for Mac (2011) which adheres all requirements.

    I'm unable to open vCard exported from MS Outlook for Mac (2011) which adheres all requirements.

    vCards exported from Outlook are not compatible with iCloud if that's what you're trying to import it to.  You'll have to do something like create a Gmail account, then export your Outlook contacts to Gmail (see http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/export-outlook-contacts-to-google -gmail-HA001148902.aspx), then export the contacts from Gmail as a vCard (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/24911?hl=en) and import it to iCloud (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605).

  • How do i sync my iphone with outlook for mac 2011 calendar?

    how do i sync my iphone with outlook for mac 2011 calendar?

    Here are some instructions from Microsoft:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489
    Alternatively, depending on where the data in Outlook is coming from, you could set up your phone to sync to the same account that Outlook is syncing with.  For example, my Outlook 2011 and my iPhone both sync to my work Exchange account, so I have that same calendar in both places.

  • Imac is 4 months old.  Using installed Outlook for Mac 2011 but now want to use ical so that I can start to use iCloud to sync with my Ipad2 and iPhone.  How do I move my calendar from outlook to ical on the iMac?

    This is my first attempt at using this forum so please be patient with me.  I am new to the apple world.  Bought an Imac desktop computer back in October and installed Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 because I was used to Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and outlook.  Now I am being told that I should be using ical for my calendar so that I will be better able to move to icloud for use between my Imac, Ipad2, and Iphone.
    The question is:  how do I move my calendar which is in "Outlook for Mac 2011" into ical on my Mac?  Do I have to remove the Outlook entries from the computer and reinstall them back to the same machine or can I somehow move calendar entries within the machine?  I appreciate any help I can get.  Thanks.

    I also already deleted my phone number from iMessage on my MBP.

  • How to view my family share calendar in outlook for mac 2011 (ical)

    Hey All
    Problem:
    Want to view my family share calendar in outlook for mac 2011.
    Want to have them sync on the fly (push)
    Currently running 2 exchange mailboxes which have their own mailboxes and calendars which you can toggle between.
    For the PC this is a relatively straight forward task.. You can add an additional calendar to outlook and you are away. Wife's PC can view her own personal exchange calendar and on a separate tab she can view, edit, print etc the family share calendar.
    For outlook for Mac, I've tried a few work arounds and none of them actually work, all the Apple documentation available doesn't really cover this.
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Cheers

    Hi,
    According to your description, I notice that Outlook for Mac for Office 365 cannot open shared calendar.
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Which account are you used, Exchange account or Microsoft account?
    Would you please login OWA and test to open this shared calendar?
    Outlook for Mac cannot open the shared calendar which is a sub-calendar, you have to ask calendar owner share all calendars under the default "Calendar" folder.
    More details about it, for your reference:

    Dear Sirs,

    Correct, USB local sync was taken away from iphones and ipads with 10.9.1 and 2. We are not allowed to speculate on rumours it might come back in 10.9.3 plus new iTunes. Either wait and see or explore Syncmate 5 beta free trial.
    icloud still works.
    Cant help with the Outlook problem.

    Any ideas? Solutions? Help!

    As Office is not an Apple product, I strongly recommend asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac
    Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. You will get the fastest help there and I think you will find the contributors more than helpful.
